Reduce waste from things

We have gotten used to instant gratification, the allure of pretty packaging and the ease of receiving goods on our doorstep with a few clicks on the computer. However, the waste that comes with all of these items adds burden to our planet. Excess packaging, low quality and single use items increase the waste that we produce. By refusing, reducing, reusing, repairing and recycling we can improve our carbon footprints by avoiding sending products (that unnecessarily consume resources) to the landfill.
